Need some Trainz Help.

[N-Trizzy2609 11]

Ok, I wanna get Trainz but I have a few questions, Which Trainz should I get for making a subway? Two can you make your own line, or is everything pre-built? Three How do you get subway cars? (R-32's R-46's and Redbirds?) I need a real Trainz Head to help me.

Alrighty then!

I would suggest either Trainz 2004 or Trainz 2006,Trainz 2004 is supposidly more stable,but I think 06 is stable as long as you treat it right. There is a leraning curve with learning how to download and install downloads etc,in either version.

And as long as you download all the subway construction set,you can make an infinite amount of subway lines,this comes with a learning curve as well as to how to set up the tracks so they look correct and so that you dont have gaping holes in the roof.

For the subway cars themselves there is a lot on the main site that auran hosts called the download station.There are

R12s

R33 Redbirds

Low-V work car

R46 A-B overhauled

R46 A-B

R30A

Lo-V

R27

R36 Worlds fair

R32

R17 (orange-red and green)

R143

But if you are looking for some payware there is

R1

R36

R40 Slant

 

There are some good fictional subway routes,but there really aren't any prototypical NYCTA subway routes....

The R1, R40, and R62 can't be downloaded unless you had them before July as the creator has stopped membership on his site. Also the R36 is not payware. The payware cars mentioned before will be eventually released once the creator finished custom cabs for the cars. On the site Protrainz.com if you look around there is a guide to using the subway construction set, so once you get the hang of it, its easy to use.

Ya R36 in payware was a typo,sorry about that:rolleyes: It was meant to be R62.

And the payware cars will be EVENTUALLY freeware,however everything I have seen from magicland is slow to come about....
